Problem Which will hold more, Farm eggs or Store eggs?

Introduction Have you ever wondered which kind of eggs were stronger and better than the other? Well I am going to test to see which one is stronger and better for you.

Hypothesis I predict that the farm eggs will hold more than the store eggs.

Materials

    • Farm eggs
    • Store eggs
    • scale (to measure book weight)
    • glass
    • paper
    • pencil
    • computer
    • bottle lids
    • friends

    Procedure
    1. Gather all materials
    2. Set eggs on bottle lids
    3. Set glass on the eggs- CARE FULLY!
    4. Then start adding weight to the eggs
    5. Record results

    Independent variable- Type of Eggs (Farm vs. Store)
    Dependent variable-results (weight held)
    Control variable-same glass, same bottle lids, same scale, same books used.

    Conclusion
    The store eggs held more than the farm eggs. And most of the research that I did on eggs, the store eggs would be no different in health benefits. was but in strength the store wins.
    Major Observations
    I think that I should have tried to get the eggs close to the same size so they dont break sooner. And I think that I should have used a lighter piece of glass.
    Possible Applications

    Possible Causes of Error
    The eggs being set a littel off in the botel lids.The whate noy being evenly on the glass.

    Further Research
    I researched the different texture of egg shells and how they are formed, this helped me decide how I should apply the weight to the eggs so that they holed a considerable amount.
